Abstract

PURPOSE:To quicken a rise of a fixing roller temperature, and also to reduce an overshoot by controlling a conduction of a fixing heater containing a fixing roller, and an auxiliary heater provided on the outside, as prescribed, respectively. CONSTITUTION:When a power source is turned on, first of all, an electric power is energized to a fixing heater containing a fixing roller. Subsequently, when a surface temperature of the fixing roller reaches the first set temperature T1 which is lower than the second set temperature T2 being suitable for fixing, an electric power is energized to an auxiliary heater provided on the outside of the fixing roller, as well. After the surface temperature of the fixing roller reaches the second set temperature T2, until a copy signal is inputted, the electric power is not energized to the auxiliary heater, and a temperature control of the fixing roller by only the fixing roller is executed. By executing a control in this way, a rise of a fixing roller temperature is quickened, and also an overshoot can be reduced.

One of them is to configure the fixing roller so that it is heated only by one built-in fixing heater, and also to provide a temperature sensor that detects the surface temperature of the fixing roller. Based on the temperature detected by the temperature sensor, the fixing roller is heated. In this method, the surface temperature of the fixing roller is maintained at a target temperature suitable for fixing by performing feedback control of power energization and power energization stop. However, with this method, as shown by the single-dot chain MA in FIG. 1, not only is the rise time of temperature T delayed;
There is an initial overshoot when the target set temperature T2 is reached for the first time after the copier is turned on, and therefore the temperature T
Not only does it take a very long time for the temperature to steadily settle around the target set temperature 'r2, but also there is a drawback that when a high temperature occurs, it causes uneven fixing which adversely affects surrounding members.

Another method is to not only incorporate a fixing heater inside the fixing roller, but also provide an auxiliary heater outside the fixing roller that heats the surface of the fixing roller, and to use these two heaters together. It is known that this method can be controlled in the same manner as in However, in this method, as shown by the two-dot chain line B in FIG. 1, although the temperature rise time can be shortened, the initial overshoot not only increases as in the above method, but also The drawback remains that the overshoot after that is also large.

A trigger signal is issued to the gate terminal of the first triax 23 to energize the fixing heater 15 with power. Then, the fixing roller 13 is heated from inside, and the temperature T of its surface gradually rises until it reaches the second set temperature T2 suitable for fixing.
The first temperature was set at approximately 70 to 80 degrees (approximately 180°C).
The set temperature T1 is reached. At this time, the control device 26 controls the second
A trigger signal is issued to the gate terminal of the triax 24 to energize the auxiliary heater 16, and a drive start signal is also issued to the photosensitive drum driving device 25 to rotate the photosensitive drum 1.

After that, the print and copy signals are turned on for a while.
As long as the signal is not input, the surface temperature T of the fixing row 213 is raised to the second level by applying power to only the fixing heater 15 and stopping it, without applying power to the auxiliary heater 16.

In summary, the method for controlling the heat fixing temperature in an electrostatographic copying machine according to the present invention is as follows: When the power is turned on, power is first energized to the fixing heater built into the fixing roller, and the surface temperature of the fixing roller is adjusted to the level required for fixing. When a first set temperature lower than a suitable second set temperature is reached, power is also energized to an auxiliary heater provided outside the fixing roller, and the surface temperature of the fixing roller reaches the second set temperature. After reaching this point, until a copy signal is input, the temperature of the fixing roller is controlled only by the fixing heater without applying power to the auxiliary heater.

That is, only immediately before the surface temperature of the fixing roller reaches the second set temperature as a target value, the fixing heater and the auxiliary heater are used together to heat the roller with a large amount of heat, and after reaching the second set temperature, the fixing heater Since temperature control is performed using a small amount of heat generated by a chisel, the temperature change on the surface of the fixing roller can be made to have a fairly short rise time, while the initial overshoot is small and the subsequent overshoot is also small. This makes it possible to quickly stabilize the temperature near the target temperature and with little change.
